    Beds with adjustable side rails first appeared in Britain some time between 1815 and 1825. [3]In 1874 the mattress company Andrew Wuest and Son, Cincinnati, Ohio, registered a patent for a type of mattress frame with a hinged head that could be elevated, a predecessor of the modern day hospital bed.

    In 3D computer graphics, a wire-frame model (also spelled wireframe model) is a visual representation of a three-dimensional (3D) physical object. It is based on a polygon mesh or a volumetric mesh, created by specifying each edge of the physical object where two mathematically continuous smooth surfaces meet, or by connecting an object's constituent vertices using (straight) lines or curves.

  9. Finite element method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_element_method

    FDM is not usually used for irregular CAD geometries but more often for rectangular or block-shaped models. [23] FEM generally allows for more flexible mesh adaptivity than FDM. [22] The most attractive feature of finite differences is that it is straightforward to implement. [22]
